I seem to struggle getting over 150 points in a game

based on the history you need to upgrade RB and LB, both of which can be done fairly effectively through waivers and free agency
find guys who are on the uptrend and take some chances, some of them will work out and recycle the ones that don't

I really need a wide receiver. I'm willing to trade Derek Carr for a receiver.

Bump. I really need an offer ASAP. I'm willing to be generous here. Carr for a WR.

I have one too many Arizona WRs and no place to play them, and a backup QB would be useful. Feel free to counter if you want John Brown instead, they're valued the same in my book.

I accepted. Do you still want to trade me Hillman for Davis?
More realistically, I notice you have Fred Jackson on your block. What are you looking for exactly? If you're looking for RB depth (and I'm guessing you might be since you only have 3 of them total) I'd be willing to trade you two weaker RBs for Jackson.

Ha! You should have taken that offer when you had the chance. Davis only has value when JC is hurt.
I have to hold onto Jackson this week because I have no one else to play due to byes, but talk to me next week if you're still interested.

Yeah, I know. I had a "funny feeling" that JC would get hurt, which sure enough, did happen. But I didn't realize Montee Ball was going to get hurt too... Ball and Spiller were awful picks. Awful. I'm actually impressed with myself for being 4-5 despite it (ANd I would have been 5-4 had I played Derek Anderson in week 1.)
Jackson may not actually play this week. But, I will probably still be interested next week. Almost certainly, in fact.

Yech I'm stuck playing Lance Dunbar this week because I have no other non-injured, non-bye-week RB available. Sucks. Isn't it about time DeMarco Murray got hurt or something? He's way overdue.
I'm feeling better about my kicker situation, at least. Took me way too long to realize that Denver just doesn't do field goals. All McManus was putting up were extra points.
Since I only need to win 2 of the next 5 to assure myself a playoff spot, it's time to hoard my precious 18 remaining roster move allowance, so I think I am done trading unless something irresistible comes by. Not even worth it to sub in for bye week IDP for me anymore, since there's no real advantage to having the #1 seed vs. any other seed. I just want to avoid any playoff matchup with Philadelphia Martyrs and Voluntaryist Victory, so whatever seed lets me do that most effectively that's the one I want.

So does that mean you're no longer willing to trade me Jackson?

If I actually had to win this week's game I'd be frantically looking for subs in four positions right now. But I only need to win 2 to have a guaranteed playoff spot, and my Week 13 matchup is practically a gimme win and I'm the odds-on favorite for the other three.
Next year I'm going to be a little less itchy-trigger-finger on the roster moves before Week 1, I burned way too many and it didn't help much.

I'm shocked DeMarco Murray isn't sporting a body cast by now. He continues to tear it up.

Those teams didn't get to 8-1 because they go down easy.

I kind of punted this week to make my D stronger moving forward.

Me and the Martyrs look to have a lock on the top two seeds, of the rest only Voluntaryist has a realistic shot to pass one of us up - most likely in his playoff-preview match with the Martyrs later this season.
Other than that, JBC will probably back in, Longbombs looks pretty well set up, and then we got a whole mess of 6-4 and 5-5 teams who are going to fight it out for those last 3 playoff spots. Might be some outside shot at some 6-loss teams making it in but they'll need a lot of help to make that happen.
